just as Officer Wagner in citizens clothes, ran
up to suppress the disorder, Shea ran out, and,
meeting the officer, shot him fatally.
He arrested, tried and sentenced
to be hanged but escaped from prison.
Later he arrested here for bur-
glary and given five years in the penitenti tiary.
While in that institution he was recognized by
fellow prisoner and finally admitted to Warden
Wright that he was Shea. He was then going
under the name of Sullivan. Shea's term
pires IN eight or ten days. and requistion papers
have already been secured for taking him TO ST.
Louis where the halter awaits him. The Pittsburg
and St Louis officials. however, discovered that
there was plot foot to rescue Shea after
leaving the penltentiary. Whether this to
be done on the train, after the manner of the
fur robbers at Ravenna, or as soon as he should
leave the institution, not made clear; but
the officials felt satisfied that attempt at res
to be made. So Harrison came on here
to Illustrate the plan. and on this case he has
been working since he arrived here last Saturday.

Postmaster-general Villas did something to-

who was to-day. with the approval of the Post

the frequent risk Of her own life she gained val

Grant. In afical documents and in other ways
the General bore testimony TO her devotion

LONDON, July 1.-The passage of the coercion
bill, next week. will mark the reai beginning of
serious troubles. The Nationalsts are de-
termined to accept the situation forced upon
them, but not with the resignation ol the
martyrs of olden time, and the first application
of the law, probably the proclamation of the
National League, will be the signal for general
resistance, not only in the proclaimed districts
but in every other part of Catholic Ireland as
well. The knowledge that a campaign of this
kind will result in wholesale arrests upon the
most trivial pretexts has resolved the Irish
leaders to make the law odious by filling the
jaiis to suffocation adding themselves to the
number of coerclon's victims. and in this way
TO paralyze the judicial machinery of the crown.
The aostention OF the Parnellite members
from voting or moving amendments last night
was part of the anti-coercion programme they
have laid out, and nothing further will be done
to retard the passage and immediate operation
of the act whose maximum effect they desire to
see before the adjournment of Parliament. If
the entire Parnelite delegation to Parliament
are not confined in Irish jails before the reas-
sembling of the House for the autumn session,
the failure of the crown to put them there will
be through no effort on the part
of the members to evade arrest, but
because public opinion against the rig
OF the law and the excess of
power assumed by its executors will have made
the governments ground too hot for it to stand
upon. The enforcement of the act before the
adjournment of the House will give the
opponents of the bill ample opportunity to
criticise its workings from the forum, whence
their utterances will penetrate every point
within the confines of the kingdom, and the
revulsion of public sentiment England
together with the active resistance of the people
in Ireland, will no doubt bring to the minority
during the parliamentary recess a season of un-
rest, anxiety and downright worriment that they
will gladly seek means to escape from.
